A news story which dominated national headlines just weeks ago. The urgency has not ended, nor even diminished, even though it's not a daily topic of discussion now, except among Canadians directly engaged. The issue of drug addiction, the "safer supply (of drugs)" and the sale of 'safer supply' drugs by addicts who received them free to Canadian teens is a national concern, centred in British Columbia. Some of these teens have died of drug overdoses. Now the director of the Vancouver Infectious Diseases Centre, Dr. Brian Conway is drawing attention to the fact of empty beds in detox centres in Vancouver.  Guest: Dr. Brian Conway   Learn more about your ad choices.

Today's podcast: Have the federal Liberals and their NDP partners, by introducing and passing the Orwellian legislation Bill C-59, which will silence the energy industry on the truth about emissions control initiatives and cost Canada $-billions. The industry will have to prove to the satisfaction of federal environment minister Steven Guilbeault, any facts on emission reductions. Fedgov states it wants to eliminate so-called "greenwashing" of emissions reporting. Now the Pathway Alliance, a consortium of Canada's six largest oil sands companies which have committed to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions from oil sands production by 2050, has basically closed down its website out of concern of the anti-greenwashing component of C-59. Failure to satisfy the fedgov's definition of the truth would result in fines of up to $15-million. and: The election of former Calgary Mayor Naheed Nenshi as Alberta NDP leader. Guest: Alberta Minister for the Environment Rebecca Schulz. Japan is experiencing an alarming spread of flesh-eating disease. In the first 6 months of 2024, already more cases than in 2023. 30% approx of cases a fatal. Many others require amputations. -Does this fit into the "armaggedon" scenario predicted by former Chief Medical Officer of Enland, Dame Sally Edwards who has insisted so-called "superbugs," bacteria increasingly resistant to antibiotics will be causing millions of deaths globally and for cases until now easily controlled by antibiotics. Dame Sally's goddaughter died of an untreatable lung infection two years ago at age 38. Guest: Jason Tetro. Microbiologist (The Germ Guy). Podcast: Super Awesome Science Show. Books: The Germ Guy and The Germ Code. Justin Trudeau's security advisor is playing down the federal government concealing documents relating directly to foreign interference in Canada from the head of the inquiry Justice Marie-Josee Hogue which Justice Hogue has requested. Position of the Trudeau government is it has chosen to provide the cabinet confidences it considers "most relevant" to the inquiry. This after Trudeau refused to answer reporters (including Global News) question about whether any Liberal MPs were named in the NSICOP report as witting or semi-witting partners of foreign governments. As well, the RCMP Commissioner on CBC said he hopes MPs don't name any politicians accused of aiding foreign powers. Many if not most Canadians want to know exactly that information. Guests:  Kevin Vuong. Independent MP for Spadina-Fort York. Dan McTeague. Former Liberal MP (18 years) and parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Foreign Affairs. Is family law in Canada stacked against fathers? Is the law and are the courts biased against men in judgments concerning divorce, custody, access and support? Guest: Scott Taylor.

A Toronto Sun story by Joe Warmington has shown a cube van in Toronto carrying carrying video advertising depicting people carrying Palestinian flags, praying and protesting, with the banner headline on the van reading Is this Yemen? Is this Syria? Is this Iraq? No. This is Canada. Wake up Canada. You are under siege.  There have been accusations this is hate speech and Toronto's chief of police Myron Demkiw promised an investigation and TPS has posted online this is Islamophobic expression and provided contact information for anyone who has information.  Toronto Mayor Olivia Chow also denounced the van and its messaging. Others are saying what is being displayed in Toronto is nothing more than freedom of expression, guaranteed all Canadians, unless and except it is defined as hate speech, per the Supreme Court. Meanwhile another truck has been seen in Toronto displaying the words "Zionism is terrorism."  Is that hate speech, or freedom of expression? Guests: Joe Warmington. Toronto Sun.  Vivian Bercovici, former Canadian Ambassador to Israel from Tel Aviv. She grew up in Toronto and VB's posts on X/Twitter have resulted in polarized responses.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

A heatwave in central/eastern Canada this week. A listener emailed following constant provincial and municipal warnings on how to deal with the heatwave "oh thanks. Whatever would I do without the great overseer." Too harsh? Also repeat stories about hot classrooms needing AC, etc.  @s_guilbeault on X assuring "we're all in it together" as far as surviving heatwaves is concerned. - Sorry if this rains on the parade, but heatwaves in the 90's Fahrenheit in June are not new. In the 1960's in an almost brand new high school in Montreal, none of our classrooms had AC, boys dress code required sports jacket, dress pants, shirt and tie and dress shoes when the mercury reached 90+F.   Guest: Greg Brady. Host: Toronto Today on AM 640. Greg's X post challenging the barrage of how to deal with hot weather warnings from muni/prov officials generated great response. Learn more about your ad choices.
